Warm Jupiters in TESS Full-Frame Images: A Catalog and Observed Eccentricity Distribution for Year 1

Kavli Affiliate: Edward H. Morgan | First 5 Authors: Jiayin Dong, Chelsea X. Huang, Rebekah I. Dawson, Daniel Foreman-Mackey, Karen A. Collins | Summary: Warm Jupiters — defined here as planets larger than 6 Earth radii with orbital periods of 8–200 days — are a key missing piece in our understanding of how planetary systems […]

EUSO-SPB2 sensitivity to macroscopic dark matter

Kavli Affiliate: Angela V. Olinto | First 5 Authors: Thomas C. Paul, Sarah T. Reese, Luis A. Anchordoqui, Angela V. Olinto, Thomas Y. Chen | Summary: Macroscopic dark matter (or macro) provides a broad class of alternative candidates to particle dark matter. These candidates would transfer energy primarily through elastic scattering, and this linear energy […]

A New Approach to Electroweak Symmetry Non-Restoration

Kavli Affiliate: Marcela Carena | First 5 Authors: Marcela Carena, Claudius Krause, Zhen Liu, Yikun Wang, | Summary: Electroweak symmetry non-restoration up to high temperatures well above the electroweak scale offers new alternatives for baryogenesis. We propose a new approach for electroweak symmetry non-restoration via an inert Higgs sector that couples to the Standard Model […]

Gate-tunable hallmarks of unconventional superconductivity in non-centrosymmetric nanowires

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea D. Caviglia | First 5 Authors: Gyanendra Singh, Claudio Guarcello, Edouard Lesne, Dag Winkler, Tord Claeson | Summary: Two dimensional SrTiO3-based interfaces stand out among non-centrosymmetric superconductors due to their intricate interplay of gate tunable Rashba spin-orbit coupling and multi-orbital electronic occupations, whose combination theoretically prefigures various forms of non-standard superconductivity. However, […]

Fast and Accurate Emulation of the SDO/HMI Stokes Inversion with Uncertainty Quantification

Kavli Affiliate: J. Todd Hoeksema | First 5 Authors: Richard E. L. Higgins, David F. Fouhey, Dichang Zhang, Spiro K. Antiochos, Graham Barnes | Summary: The Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) onboard NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) produces estimates of the photospheric magnetic field which are a critical input to many space weather modelling and […]

Stellar Metallicities from SkyMapper Photometry II: Precise photometric metallicities of $sim$280,000 giant stars with [Fe/H] $< -0.75$ in the Milky Way

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Anirudh Chiti, Anna Frebel, Mohammad K. Mardini, Tatsuya W. Daniel, Xiaowei Ou | Summary: The Milky Way’s metal-poor stars are nearby ancient objects that are used to study early chemical evolution and the assembly and structure of the Milky Way. Here we present reliable metallicities of $sim280,000$ […]

The Metal-Poor Metallicity Distribution of the Ancient Milky Way

Kavli Affiliate: Anna Frebel | First 5 Authors: Anirudh Chiti, Mohammad K. Mardini, Anna Frebel, Tatsuya Daniel, | Summary: We present a low metallicity map of the Milky Way consisting of $sim$111,000 giants with $-3.5 lesssim$ [Fe/H] $lesssim -$0.75, based on public photometry from the second data release of the SkyMapper survey. These stars extend […]

Competing correlated states around the zero field Wigner crystallization transition of electrons in two-dimensions

Kavli Affiliate: Joseph Falson | First 5 Authors: Joseph Falson, Inti Sodemann, Brian Skinner, Daniela Tabrea, Yusuke Kozuka | Summary: The competition between kinetic energy and Coulomb interactions in electronic systems can lead to complex many-body ground states with competing superconducting, charge density wave, and magnetic orders. Here we study the low temperature phases of […]

Gaia EDR3 Parallax Zero-point Offset based on W Ursae Majoris-type Eclipsing Binaries

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Fangzhou Ren, Xiaodian Chen, Huawei Zhang, Richard de Grijs, Licai Deng | Summary: We independently determine the zero-point offset of the Gaia early Data Release-3 (EDR3) parallaxes based on $sim 110,000$ W Ursae Majoris (EW)-type eclipsing binary systems. EWs cover almost the entire sky and are characterized […]
